  1. The one that will win back their one time global leadership. That the last one and their tie up with King Windows was going to bring them. Wasn't that what King Kenny was going to do?
  2. In just about every football club "we will die in 5 days" story we have followed since our demise, the deal has always been done about a month after the 5 days was up. Perhaps the Trust bid is the only thing left, which is giving TB the hope that now they have fallen off the edge of a cliff at the end of the season he can keep trying.....
  3. Of course, paypal me 100 quid I'll get down to the dodgy fake watch shop in Karama, for that you can take your pick of current Breitling, Rolex, Tag, Omega. He'd never know the difference. (Of course he'd die of Nickel poisoning within 5 years but then hey House lives in the East Coast - no brainer). Should be able to get it to Stansted around 6th June
  4. The locals will help you but I got a train from Salisbury that went via Eastleigh. We changed there and got a train to (Help guys!) got off the train and a bus took us straight to the Rosebowl Same on the way home just do the fire drill walk or have an extra beer after the game
  5. Tried it but fingers just didn't work. Have gone for a simple techie solution - keeping the old Nokia E51 and will take that when out on the "boys nights out" with my point & shoot. Sits in a case easily on the belt, better quality pics & vids and cheaper to replace if I lose it! But for work - perfect
  6. Gang Thanks for the advice I REALLY appreciate it next home game I'm over I'll head for the Kingsland Tavern & owe you all a beer We went for the HTC One X Quad Core, got them today. Interestingly showed them to couple of lads down from UK office and they were gutted we'd got them with them having been issued with IPhone 4S's (cost of everything and ease of wifi on and off their main moans) Of course nobody told me I needed to go get a micro Sim but that's another 2 hour queue for tomorrow. So, again gang seriously - thanks
  7. Keep it simple & classic Dune. Taste is as diverse as opinions on here. One man's Rolex Oyster with Diamonds is vomit inducing for others. A retiree may not need a Dive watch stylee for example I got given a classic round gold plated Rotary with plated bracelet - simple face with a date window - when I left an employer many years ago, it is not an "everyday watch" but I still wear it out for "dressing up posh" evenings 5 or 6 times a year some 16 years on, reminds me still of the friends I made way back then
  8. Most people would use the words lock door the bolted stable after horse in the right order. But being poorsmuff they rewrite the rules as usual
  9. Can't help but think that squad looks light in CM. With most PL teams these days playing versions of 4-3-3 or 4-5-1 it seems to still be loaded to play Mike Bassett Oh well, never mind I know nothing. But would have loved to have seen two out of three of Oxo/Young & Theo on the flanks around a single striker.
  10. That statement alone will no doubt be enough for the Management at Nott Arf Krap to make bids for Tevez, order the new clock and some containers for the training ground and to bring in 4 out of contract PL players this week "so they have time to bed in with the team dynamic" They will also of course halt the fire sale and will leverage that Statement into a 15 billion Eurobond issue
  11. Best collective grouping of nutjob comments since the days of 19C. Just about everyone has got some in now. Gonna love the laughs and the 's from all sides when this gets bumped again in a year or so
  12. Christ. I only SAW the link and immediately the title tune was in my head and I remembered every word.. arrgh CEC mentioned Tom & Jerry, but WHY no mention for Road Runner & ACME meep meep
  13. If you have a Bachelor Pad Fridge Magnet Flags. Always collect the Fridge Magnets you youngsters. Then throw a complete curve ball in there. Saudi Arabia, Yemen or Somalia would always cause a beer spray moment. Didn't need to be true just always got the same reaction
  14. What's Eastenders? But yes felt that last night was a really powerful episode, the only "wooden" acting left seems to be coming from Calese (sp) but seeing how everything and everyone develops you can see how that is beginning to boil up and change. Think she has some naivety to lose fairly soon.... Theon's descent into a dark place is a strong subplot. Even with, as you say. some cutting & pasting of characters, they have a hard job on their hands keeping all the pieces together. At the moment they just about seem to have the number of storylines right. If it got many more I think it would start to become very difficult for many to follow. I watched S1 in "Power Viewing" mode on catch up Series Stack in the space of about 4 days and it was just superb. Surprisingly for all the subplots I am finding that it still holds together so well when watched "properly" each week. Sure as hell would not want to miss an episode though. (Hopefully the OSN Plus box down here will work smoothly while I am on vacation in a couple of weeks) The scenery "North of the Wall" is absolutely sensational, and yet Qarth seems to consist of only a couple of rooms so far. Lots to look forward to though.
  15. Question. How many others bought the entire boxed set of Thunderbirds when it came out on DVD some 7/8 years ago?
  16. This one will never catch on And ladies - THE HAIR! [video=youtube;yUEutw-RP7U]
  17. Steve Zodiac what a guy.... And what a cracking title tune. Kids today just don't know.....
  18. Yeah right. Some of us have family members that lurk/post on here or are now happily over the age of 18 where we don't need to boast about these things. Although back to the OP and the size of some of the lists, did he really mean in one night? Numbers seem mighty small
  19. It's blindingly obvious why total attendances at Football matches was lower in the 80's Stadiums didn't serve Prawn Sandwiches back then.You couldn't get a Chicken Balti Pie, only a Bovril & a Wagonwheel. You had to stand out in the rain, and let's face it, The Salisbury & District League used to have 7 Divisions on a Saturday, and games kicked off at 3pm. You used to be able to buy a scarf and a shirt or maybe a lapel pin if you were able to fight your way into a club shop somewhere. Now? Hell you can even buy "Top Club" branded mobile phone cases. Slight difference in the market awareness and matchday experience now that spectators have become customers instead of animals herded into pens by neo nazi's with cattle prods.
  20. Well TDD, look what you started now http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/middleeast/bahrain/9264870/Gulf-considers-Bahrain-and-Saudi-Arabia-union.html In a word. Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
  21. Clearly the budget for the next Transformers movie got cut
  22. Once upon a time. Somebody asked a hypothetical question. Is it possible to make the owners of Man Citeh look stupid? What would it really take? Strangely, they did not bother to ask that question of a fans forum. But they did ask an awful lot of people.
  23. I mean no, really, I was all set to say it was bewbless when.......... strewth
  24. It's GoT review time. Gosh
